Ketchikan
Today morning our cruise ship, the
“Golden Princess”, docked at Ketchikan, AK.
The first thing we did was enjoy a
3-hour tour. We learned about a few totems and the stories they represented. We
explored a beach or two, and I climbed a lot of rocks. It was very fun, and I
liked climbing the rocks a lot. We also had a lot of fun lifting rocks and
catching the small crabs under them. The tour guide was funny, and apparently
she had seen a 39-inch dandelion before.
The next thing we did was enjoy the
city of Ketchikan. Everybody’s favorite part was the salmon hopping around in
the river. It was very funny. The fish hopped up a few times, and then they hit
something and were swept downstream. It was beautiful, though with bunches of
fish everywhere. I wish dad could have got a picture, but the jumps were too
fast. It was also very interesting watching Grandma get really excited. She
loved watching fish slip up and down the stream, and got very excited each time
she saw fish. I thought she was going to faint when she saw the humongous group
of fish in a bend in the Creek Street river.
Ketchikan was a great experience,
with its multitude of berries and friendly citizens.
